    We plan to be at the track by 3:00pm on Friday so we can get people in and parked starting at 5:00pm. We will try for a little earlier, but no promise. Either way everyone will enter from the back of the track through the turn 3 tunnel. See everyone there.

    Them's fighting words. He's just some vacuum cleaner motor in his car. Needs a V8.

    Seriously, glad you could make it down and look forward to racing with you.

    At CMS that is not the case. Look for Kent Thompson, Jeff Y, and a few others to be faster. I have the wrong gear in the car and no time to change. Not running for points this year so just getting a race in so I can run the new car at the SIC. Then you will be correct.

    Mr. Eckerich is too modest.

    At least four of the 12 cars can win: Kent, Steve E., Steve P. and me. A few other regulars have not signed up yet who could as well: Chuck, David Spillman, etc. Mark Gray has been coming on strong lately, and Ron Munnerlyn is a new car that has been fast as well.

    Should be a good race.

    Bottom line is all the cars can win. No way to know how the race weekend will go with racing situations and unexpected things happening. The ITS SARRCs should be a fun races and I look forward to watching them.

    So Steve are you saying that the 4:88 in my car is the gear to have at CMS? I hope so

    I have 5 seperate final drives I run in the RX7, but the 4.88 should have you in the sweet spot for most of the track.
